Study design details

Main study objective

To compare OS in postmenopausal women and men treated with palbociclib + AI versus AI alone as first-line therapy for HR+/HER2- MBC

Outcomes

Overall Survival in postmenopausal women and men treated with palbociclib + AI versus AI alone as first-line therapy for HR+/HER2- MBC, rwPFS and rwRR in post-menopausal women and men treated with palbociclib + AI versus AI alone as first-line therapy for HR+/HER2 - MBC during first-line treatment

Data analysis plan

An IPTW approach will be used to compare palbociclib + AI versus AI alone for the average treatment effect (ATE) on the primary endpoint OS. A weighted log-rank test with the robust variance estimation will be used for the hypothesis testing with the significance level at 1-sided 0.025. Hazard ratio (HR) for OS with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI will be calculated based on a weighted Cox’s proportional hazard model.
